((Post S1, mainly takes place in S2. This is going to be a what-if fic because as much as I love how it ended, I'm still fucking mad-)) When tension rises after the reappearance of Edward Teach and the lack of Stede Bonnet, Izzy Hands has been taking the brunt of Blackbeard's wrath. However, things take a turn, most likely for the worst, when Izzy learns that there's a part of him influenced by someone so insignificant... at least he thought was.
